I recently stayed again at the Painted Lady and, true to form,I had a wonderful time. Butch and Marilyn were kind enough to accommodate us later than usual - we called at 9:30pm to inquire about a room for the same night! We were greeted warmly and told to make ourselves at home. Butch made us both some yummy hot... More

My wife and I stayed here for one night on the way back from Cooperstown. It certainly lived up to the recommendations. The house was a charming Victorian mansion, the room was delightful, the bed was very good, and the breakfast was just fine. So was the conversation over breakfast, with a couple from the Kitchener-Waterloo area and with Butch... More

We stayed here May 2012 and it was wonderful! The grounds were well maintained and our room was very clean. The owners were out for our first night and the man they had filling in for them was such a great host, we were sad to see him go. He was entertaining, helpful, personable and really seemed to enjoy the... More

Superb and beautiful home that elevates Bed and Breakfast to a whole new level. Butch the owner is a gracious host and presents a phenomenal breakfast. If you're not a breakfast person, you will be after staying here. Butch is extremely knowledgeable about the area and wonderful to be around. Our room "Becky's Sanctuary" was beautiful, cozy and clean. I... More

What a wonderful B&B...excellent decor of this beautiful victorian house. The Monroe's were wonderful hosts.

Breakfast was excellent and the conversation was good. I would... More

What a wonderful place to stay! The owners were so friendly, even sitting down with us at the breakfast table to answer questions and converse. The room, the delicious breakfasts, and the lovely setting were beyond expectation. The owners worked very hard to make it all so special for their guests.

Emira's Painted Lady is a beautifully maintained Victorian house that provides all of the charm and style of that era combined with modern amenities and top notch service. Butch and Marilyn go out of their way to make staying here an pleasent experience. The house is very close to down town with easy access on and off of the highway.... More

We stayed in the Samuel Clemens Hideaway for two nights. I was optimistic because of the positive reviews, but cautious because we have stayed at only one other B&B and were not impressed. Upon arrival, we were a bit put off by the area. Elmira seems to be a bit depressed, but the Painted Lady stands out. The exterior of... More

The travel blurb puts this in the top ten in the USA. From my limited experience that is fair. Excellent rooms, well appointed, but no coffee making! A small problem with a very interesting building and friendly atmosphere. Well worth a visit and good location for the wine country
